CLEAN HARBORS ENVIRONMENTAL SERVICE, INC., 19 Defendants.

1 STIPULATION FOR PROTECTIVE ORDER 2 IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED by and between the Parties to Barnhill v. Clean Harbors (Case No. 3:25-CV-00324-MMD-CSD), by and through their respective counsel of record, that in order to facilitate the exchange of information and documents which may be subject to confidentiality limitations on disclosure due to federal laws, state laws, and privacy rights, the Parties stipulate as follows: 7 1. Definitions.

8 In this Stipulated Protective Order, the words set forth below shall have the following meanings: 10 a. “Proceeding” means the above-entitled proceeding, Case No. 3:25-CV- 11 00324-MMD-CSD.

12 b. “Court” means the Hon. Miranda M. Du, Hon. Craig S. Denney, or any other 13 judge to which this Proceeding may be assigned, including Court staff participating in such 14 proceedings.

15 c. “Confidential” means any information which is in the possession of a 16 Designating Party who believes in good faith that such information is entitled to confidential 17 treatment under applicable law.

18 d. “Confidential Materials” means any Documents, Testimony or Information 19 as defined below designated as “Confidential” pursuant to the provisions of this Stipulation 20 and Protective Order.

21 e. “Designating Party” means the Party that designates Materials as 22 “Confidential.”

25 g. “Documents” means any “writing,” “recording,” and “duplicate” as those 26 terms are defined by the Federal Rules of Evidence, Rule 1001.

27 h. “Information” means the content of Documents or Testimony.

1 used in this Proceeding.

2 2. Scope.

3 a. The Designating Party shall have the right to designate as “Confidential” any 4 Documents, Testimony or Information that the Designating Party in good faith believes to 5 contain non-public information that is entitled to confidential treatment under applicable 6 law.

7 b. The protections conferred by this Stipulated Protective Order cover not only 8 Confidential Materials (as defined above), but also (1) any confidential information copied 9 or extracted from Confidential Materials; (2) all copies, excerpts, summaries, or 10 compilations of Confidential Materials; and (3) any testimony, conversations, or 11 presentations by Parties or their Counsel that might reveal Confidential Materials. However, 12 the protections conferred by this Stipulated Protective Order do not cover the following 13 information: (a) any information that is in the public domain at the time of disclosure to a 14 receiving Party or becomes part of the public domain after its disclosure to a receiving Party 15 as a result of publication not involving a violation of this Order; and (b) any information 16 known to the receiving Party prior to the disclosure or obtained by the receiving Party after 17 the disclosure from a source who obtained the information lawfully and under no obligation 18 of confidentiality to the Designating Party.

19 c. All Confidential Information produced or exchanged in the course of this case 20 (other than information that is publicly available) shall be used by the party to whom the 21 information is produced solely for the purpose of this case.

22 d. The entry of this Stipulated Protective Order does not alter, waive, modify, 23 or abridge any right, privilege, or protection otherwise available to any Party with respect to 24 the discovery of matters, including but not limited to any Party’s right to assert the attorney- 25 client privilege, the attorney-work-product doctrine, or other privileges, or any Party’s right 26 to contest any such assertion.

27 3. Designating Confidential Material.

1 clearly so designated before the Document, Testimony or Information is disclosed or produced. The parties may agree that the case name and number are to be part of the “Confidential” designation.

3 The “Confidential” designation should not obscure or interfere with the legibility of the designated Information.

5 a. For Documents (apart from transcripts of depositions or other pretrial or trial 6 proceedings), the Designating Party must affix the legend “Confidential” on each page of 7 any Document containing such designated Confidential Material.

8 b. For Testimony given in depositions the Designating Party may either: 9 i. identify on the record, before the close of the deposition, all 10 “Confidential” Testimony, by specifying all portions of the Testimony that qualify 11 as “Confidential;” or 12 ii. designate the entirety of the Testimony at the deposition as 13 “Confidential” (before the deposition is concluded) with the right to identify more 14 specific portions of the Testimony as to which protection is sought within 30 days 15 following receipt of the deposition transcript. In circumstances where portions of the 16 deposition Testimony are designated for protection, the transcript pages containing 17 “Confidential” Information may be separately bound by the court reporter, who must 18 affix to the top of each page the legend “Confidential,” as instructed by the 19 Designating Party.

20 c. For Testimony given in other pretrial or trial proceedings, the Designating 21 Party shall identify on the record, before the close of the hearing or other proceeding, all 22 protected testimony.

23 d. For Information produced in some form other than Documents, and for any 24 other tangible items, including, without limitation, compact discs or DVDs, the Designating 25 Party must affix in a prominent place on the exterior of the container or containers in which 26 the Information or item is stored the legend “Confidential.” If only portions of the 27 Information or item warrant protection, the Designating Party, to the extent practicable, shall 1 4. Designation of Documents Produced by Third Parties.

2 a. Designation by Third-Party. Any Information that may be produced by a non- 3 Party witness in discovery in the Proceeding pursuant to subpoena or otherwise may be 4 designated by such non-Party as “Confidential” under the terms of this Stipulated Protective 5 Order, and any such designation by a non-Party shall have the same force and effect, and 6 create the same duties and obligations, as if made by one of the undersigned Parties hereto.

7 Any such designation shall also function as consent by such producing Party to the authority 8 of the Court in the Proceeding to resolve and conclusively determine any motion or other 9 application made by any person or Party with respect to such designation, or any other matter 10 otherwise arising under this Stipulated Protective Order.

11 b. Designation by Party. Any Party may designate as “CONFIDENTIAL” any 12 document that is produced or disclosed without such designation by any third party within 13 thirty (30) days of production of such document (or such other time as may be agreed in 14 writing), provided that such document contains Confidential Information which was not 15 redacted.

16 i. Parties to the Proceeding may designate such documents as 17 “CONFIDENTIAL” by sending written notice of such designation, accompanied by 18 copies of the designated document bearing the “CONFIDENTIAL” stamp, to all 19 other Parties in possession or custody of such previously undesignated document.

20 Any Party receiving such notice and copy of the designated document pursuant to 21 this subparagraph shall, within ten (10) calendar days of receipt of such notice (or 22 such other time as may be agreed in writing), either (a) destroy all undesignated 23 copies of such document in their custody or possession, or (b) alternately shall affix 24 the “CONFIDENTIAL” stamp to all copies of such designated document in their 25 custody or possession.

26 ii. Upon notice of designation pursuant to this paragraph, Parties shall 27 also: (i) make no further disclosure of such designated document or information 1 notify any persons who were provided copies of such designated document of the 2 terms of this Order; and (iii) take reasonable steps to reclaim any such designated 3 document in the possession of any person not permitted access to such information 4 under the terms of this Order.

5 5. Inadvertent Failure to Designate.

6 The inadvertent production by any of the undersigned Parties or non-Parties to the Proceeding of any Document, Testimony or Information during discovery in this Proceeding without a “Confidential” designation, shall be without prejudice to any claim that such item is “Confidential” and such Party shall not be held to have waived any rights by such inadvertent production. In the event that any Document, Testimony or Information that is subject to a “Confidential” designation is inadvertently produced without such designation, the Party that inadvertently produced the document shall give written notice of such inadvertent production within twenty (20) days of discovery of the inadvertent production, together with a further copy of the subject Document, Testimony or Information designated as “Confidential” (the “Inadvertent Production Notice”). Upon receipt of such Inadvertent Production Notice, the Party that received the inadvertently produced Document, Testimony or Information shall promptly destroy the inadvertently produced Document, Testimony or Information and all copies thereof, or, at the expense of the producing Party, return such together with all copies of such Document, Testimony or Information to counsel for the producing Party and shall retain only the “Confidential” designated Materials. Should the receiving Party choose to destroy such inadvertently produced Document, Testimony or Information, the receiving Party shall notify the producing Party in writing of such destruction within ten (10) days of receipt of written notice of the inadvertent production. This provision is not intended to apply to any inadvertent production of any Information protected by attorney-client or work product privileges. In the event that this provision conflicts with any applicable law regarding waiver of confidentiality through the inadvertent production of Documents, Testimony or Information, such law shall govern.

27 6. Challenging Confidentiality Designations.

1 Documents, Testimony or Information in discovery designated as “Confidential” objects to 2 such designation with respect to any or all of such items, said counsel shall advise counsel 3 for the Designating Party, in writing, of such objections, the specific Documents, Testimony 4 or Information to which each objection pertains, and the specific reasons and support for 5 such objections (the “Designation Objections”). The parties shall attempt to resolve each 6 challenge in good faith and must begin the process by conferring within fourteen (14) days 7 of the date of service of notice. In conferring, the Challenging Party must explain the basis 8 for its belief that the confidentiality designation was not proper, and the Designating Party 9 must reconsider the circumstances, and, if no change in designation is offered, explain the 10 basis for the chosen designation. The parties may proceed to the next stage of the challenge 11 process only if they have engaged in this meet and confer process first or establish that the 12 other party is unwilling to participate in the meet and confer process in a timely manner.

13 b. Judicial Intervention. If the Parties cannot resolve a challenge without court 14 intervention, the Designating Party shall file and serve a motion identifying the designated 15 material and setting forth in detail the basis for the designation (the “Designation Motion”).

16 The Designation Motion must be accompanied by a competent declaration affirming that the 17 movant and opposing party have complied with the meet and confer requirements imposed 18 in the preceding paragraph. The Designation Motion must be filed within 30 days of the end 19 of the parties’ meet and confer process. Pending a resolution of the Designation Motion by 20 the Court, any and all existing designations on the Documents, Testimony or Information at 21 issue in such Motion shall remain in place. The Designating Party shall have the burden on 22 any Designation Motion of establishing the applicability of its “Confidential” designation.

23 c. In the event that the Designation Objections are neither timely agreed to nor 24 timely addressed in the Designation Motion, then such Documents, Testimony or 25 Information shall be de-designated in accordance with the Designation Objection applicable 26 to such material.
